As a former server and barista, you really get to see how shitty people can be to those in the service industry. I guess it’s easy to take a shot at someone who is obliged to serve you with a smile.

This is the correct answer. I saved a few hundred dollars buying new phones and smart watches for my wife and I at BestBuy. Paid off the credit card once the first statement came then destroyed the card. All it cost me was a credit check. Well worth the hundreds of dollars it saved me.

To be honest, UBI is probably the plan that makes most sense coming from any of the candidates.

Detractors are up in arms about giving more money to people already on welfare but the plan is if you take UBI, you lose eligibility for other social services - for example, food stamps - which likely already costs the…

I love misspellings and malapropisms!

Walla.... you lost me from the gecko, pre-madonna style. It’s like nightened day for all intesive purposes.

Anyway the sun has gone down so the ultra-violent rays are gone and I’m hungry so I’ll be heading out for a bite to eat. Bone apple tea.

What is this nonsense... anything temperature above 70 degrees is basically sweltering... 78 when I’m out of the house fine. But when I’m home I’d prefer a temperature that doesn’t feel like a sauna.

Received a six figure check when my company was acquired (and it . Put most of it to pay down student debt (mine and my wife’s) - Clicking the submit button on the loan servicer website was hardest thing in the world I’ve had to do but once it was done, we both literally felt a weight off our shoulders - being…

And medical practitioners that refer to themselves as doctors are insufferable

Did you pay off 300k in one go?

I’m a millennial who has paid off his (suicide inducing, 300k+) student loan debt by dumping all of my successful startup exit cash into my loans and it would 100% feel like I threw a way a house.

I’m going to go ahead and say that the level of saltiness involved scales proportionately with the amount of student loans you’ve paid off already.

My wife and I spent a decade struggling to pay off 300k in combined student loans before a startup I helped built from scratch was acquired. The money I received from the…

I used to travel to and from Asia biannually and doing this was basically necessary to be productive. I always assumed this is what people did when traveling to a significantly different timezone.

A CS degree.
This paid off my 6 figure student loan debt from a bachelor’s in [insert useless liberal arts major here], law school, and from itself in less than 3 years.

I walk or Lyft in Boston/Cambridge, MA. A 3 mile Lyft ride to work in the morning is often cheaper than the bus fare of 1.75 (even considering my bus fare is paid with pre-tax dollars).

Somehow I’d still pick this over Amazon Prime Music’s UI.

So yeah, this is the story of how I came to own a house instead of ending up on the streets.

You’ve just said it... 2/3 of the country DGAF about the Super Bowl...

Realize that more people are in our camp than yours. While 1/3 of the country is too busy watching the Super Bowl to do anything else, the remaining 2/3 is happy to use the excuse of sports ball to do other things.

I will say that during 4 years at…

I don’t see the metaphor you’re referring to @IffySushi.

No one mentioned sex... Basically, I understood this as: “don’t make a mess where you make a living.”

But I get it... you have sex and want to let the anonymous world know you do. Good on you.

Looks like a hearse in that picture

Leaving North America is fairly expensive from North America ;)

Chicago is even worse. Hope whoever comes here during the winter enjoys frostbite and hypothermia.
